Hah! Great design, looks like it was sold that way.

Love that bubble in the corner. very nice.
 
basically a false wall with 3 chambers. 1st is for skimmer/media, 2nd is a cheato fuge with 2x1w submersible leds, 3rd chamber is heater and return powerhead/maxijet 900. additional water flow by koralia 425. lighting is a 150w HQI with 14k pheonix bulb. micro fan for cooling, and i'll be adding a ATO unit to chamber 1 next week.
livestock includes:
1 pep shrimp
1 fire cleaner shrimp
12 nassurius vibex
4 blue legs
12 nerites snails
lots of stometella snails and pods
misc sps,lps and zoo's, couple leathers

been thinking of doing leds over this tank or upgrading to a 250w MH.

Great work, you should make a bunch and sell them cause that is awesome! Or at least sell the idea before someone else makes alot of money...
 
I went with LEDs on my 20L and love it. Really helps if you have any heat issues as well with such a small tank.

Only thing I'd say be wary of is the acclimation to the new LEDs as the tank is so shallow.
 
I actually had somone make the acrylic insert,i just put it all together. the 5.5g insert is way kewl too.
 
That's really cool. I really like the filtration compartment off to one side.

How did you get the black wall made?

Also, what kind of slimmer are you using in such a small space?
